Displaced villagers at a shelter in Gemampir village, Yogyakarta, Indonesia are overcome with emotions as Mount Merapi continued to belch out deadly pyroclastic flows and clouds of superheated ash and gases further down the slopes forcing them to re-evacuate to another camp farther from the summit. As authorities kept expanding the radius of the safety zone from the volcano's summit, villagers have to evacuate several times from one camp to another.
